Beastmaster of the Ages-Chapter 2831 - Xingtians Return

Yi Daiyan's side had also lost tens of thousands of astral gods. The fact that they lost a fifth of their forces even though they had three times as many troops as their enemy showed how fierce a fight the ebons had put up.

Even though Greeenhill wasn't as well defended as the Sun had been, the battle had been mostly conducted on land, making the blood and gore pile up in an even more staggering fashion. Once almost all the ebons had been killed and their ships taken down, the troops of the alliance of now ten Infinitum Regal Clans heartily laughed and celebrated their win.

The ebons had lost so many astral gods in recent times that they’d been pulled down to the level of everyone else. They used to have twice as many forces as Yi Daiyan, yet she had managed to turn the other clans into her allies, completely seizing the advantage. The army of the Infinitum Bodhimanda was now twice the size of the ebons.

"Shenxi Xingtian must be going insane from yet another loss."

"He deserves it for betraying his allies!"

"I'd love to see the look on his face now."

"Come. There’s still quite a few roaming wildbeasts at Greenhill. Let’s help clean them out." The former allies of the ebons were more than eager to help. They had to, now that they had changed sides and wanted to get in their good graces.

"I wonder if the rex mundi’s slain the damned bloodline wisteria."

As the army was clearing up the battlefield after regaining control over it, the astralguard formation visibly shook. Everyone saw a ghastly head descend from the skies over Greenhill, covered in thick black smoke. The moment it appeared, it opened its mouth and shot out a red pillar of light; it was the annihilating nova source beam of an infinitum-class astralship!

Shenxi Xingtian had finally returned, and he was attacking Greenhill. Even though he was too late to save his army, that didn't matter much, as the true game changers of astral warfare were infinitum-class astralships. While the Infinitum Stele could be used to breach defensive formations, the Ebonfiend could be used to destroy them outright!

"Be careful!" The sudden reentry of the Ebonfiend had come just as the beast wave was weakening. The defensive formation around Greenhill looked dim, as if it was at its very limit. If it couldn't hold up against the Ebonfiend's attack, tens of millions of gods might be killed just like that.

"Engage the formation spirit threads!" Yushan Taifeng yelled. Everyone and their beasts poured power into the defensive formation, but there was far too little time.

"Shenxi Xingtian must be absolutely enraged...." People waited with bated breath.

In that tense moment, a streak of black and gold shot out from the subterranean world, breaking through the defensive formation and clashing with the beam unleashed by the Ebonfiend! While the sword flash was much smaller than the beam, it seemed far sharper and was easily able to slash through the center of the pillar of light, partially scattering it before it collided with the defensive formation.

The formation rumbled, causing the whole of Greenhill to feel the aftershock vibrations. All over the place, the ground cracked open, buildings fell, and ornate landscapes were ruined. However, the formation itself held up and there were only a few indirect casualties.

Those in Greenhill regained their confidence in their savior. "All hail the rex mundi!"

As they looked on in worship, Yi Daiyan came flying out of the subterranean world, turning into a white streak of light as she rose into the sky, her sword pointed at the gigantic black head. The Ebonfiend and the Infinitum Stele were finally going to clash in a battle between two foundationeers that many had yearned to see.

Alas, they had overestimated Shenxi Xingtian's bravery, for the Ebonfiend suddenly turned around and used all its power to fly off in another direction right after the first attack with all the speed an infinitum-class ship could muster.

Yi Daiyan almost caught up, but she couldn't sustain that speed for long, so she returned to Greenhill. Shenxi Xingtian had fled, but that had only completely humiliated him. The other clans finally understood who the ultimate ruler of Ebonia and god of the Infinitum Bodhimanda was!

"The sanctlighters' ether-class ships have been completely destroyed, but they were still willing to hand their formation core to the first rex mundi and even serve her."

"That means, of the thirteen Infinitum Regal Clans, eleven stand on her side."

"We can completely overwhelm the ebons! Their actions will finally force them to face the justice of the Infinitum Bodhimanda!"

"This will surely make all the other clans in the Infinitum Mundus recognize who the true ruler is and submit to the first rex mundi!"

"Looks like it's completely over for the ebons, then."

"It's still hard to say."

"Let's see what the first rex mundi has to say."

After Yi Daiyan returned, Yushan Taifeng, Shuntian Bohai, Duanmu Sheng, Mu Huo, Murong Han, and the other regal clan leaders joined her side. While they were only kneeling on one knee, their souls might as well be prostrating themselves to her.

"Rex Mundi, what of the bloodline wisteria?" Yushan Taifeng was filled with endless rage at the corpse-littered Greenhill.

After some silence, Yi Daiyan said, "I almost found its heart, but the Ebonfiend's interruption allowed it to escape."

Yushan Taifeng grit his teeth with disappointment.

"Brother Yushan, please try and understand the rex mundi. The bloodline wisteria is the most terrifying creature in all of Ebonia, and it’s famous for being incredibly hardy and tough. It has tens of millions of hearts under the planet's crust. It’s really hard to find the most important one," Shuntian Bohai said.

Others joined in the consolation.

"That's right. The bloodline wisteria is really hard to kill. Even during this attack, it still didn’t show its true form. Its vines are here, but we don't know where its main body is."

"Even though the ebons have been defeated a few times so far, their infinitum-class warbeast is still hard to deal with."
